[h1]Museum, Museum World, UMMA Territory[/h1]
[h2]ζ-662221, Snakeman[/h2]
The Snakeman, seeing Cinder Fall for who she was, hissed in pain as the crystals shattered in his thick, augmented hide. Having been bred en-masse for combat and augmented far beyond the level of any normal human, the Snakeman felt neither pain nor fear enough to falter at his job. His muscles undulating rhythmically, the Snakeman fired off a carefully-aimed Heavy Plasma bolt straight at Cinder. The bolt crackled with searing energy, ensuring that even a miss would not go without incurring painful burns on its target's form.

[h2]Sindibad Darude, Human[/h2]
Sindibad chuckled lightly as yet more reinforcements arrived for both the Shadow Eternity dog and the UMMA civilians' forces. Gritting his teeth in mock anger, he opted to go for a bald-faced lie to further add confusion to the situation. 

"Did you think Shadow Eternity could forgive your betrayal!? You're gonna pay for what you did! UMMA or no, we're gonna teach you not to abuse The Leader's good will!"

[h2]Hasse, Trandoshan[/h2]
Seeing Sindibad engage in foul subterfuge was infuriating to the proud Trandoshan, but tolerable. The exhibit room had become a quagmire in just a few seconds, but it was easy to see who was on whose side.

 That grunt with the uniform and the two combatmen in the gaudy armor were obviously with Shocker+, judging by their confident and cheerful demeanor. The smug-looking thugs wearing medieval armor and a pink hoodie respectively were obviously rubes who still hadn't realized what Shadow Eternity had planned and how unprofitable it was. The... good lord, who [i]is[/i] that?! The girl wearing a crude, poofy mockery of a bishop's uniform without any leggings [i]had[/i] to be either UMMA or else a stripper who had gotten lost on their way to a very suspect party. Either way, she was a low-priority target.
 
 Currently, it appeared that one of the Shocker+ minions was in danger! With practiced precision, the Trandoshan set his blaster to its 'less-than-lethal' setting, and aimed at Kiba while he was focused on the Kurokage Trooper.
 With a fearsome [b]"P-KREENG!"[/b], a neon-blue ring of paradoxically unheated directed plasma shot forth, aiming straight for Kiba's unguarded backside!

[h2]Roidmude 96, Spider Roidmude[/h2]
[i]Good lord[/i], this transformation was taking its time! Last time he'd tried this, he had the legs out within seconds! The Roidmude greatly regretted leaving that Viral Core in his pockets on Cleansing Day; it had apparently lost most of its power in the wash! Though he was confident he'd be relatively safe while transforming (after all, [i]nobody[/i], not even villains, would attack someone mid-transformation), he did worry that, by the time he [i]finished[/i], the battle would be over!
